Scott, the freshly minted Masters champion, appeared today on “CBS This Morning,” wearing his green jacket and fielding questions ranging from his love life to Woods. On the latter, Scott was unequivocal in his prediction Woods will break Jack Nicklaus’ hallowed record of 18 major titles.

Asked by Charlie Rose if he thinks Woods will break the record, Scott said, “I absolutely believe he will. I’ve learned in my career — and I’ve played through his prime the whole time, which has been hard because he was so dominant — but I never doubt what he’s capable of on a golf course. He’s just proven us all wrong so many times.

“He’ll find a way to do it, for sure. I believe that.”

Scott handled an awkward question from Rose’s co-host, Gayle King, who raved about Scott’s good looks and essentially asked him about being single. Scott said he’s “not single at all” and revealed he’s dating Marie Kozjar, a former girlfriend.

As for becoming the first Australian to win the Masters, Scott talked of staying home from school in 1987, when he was 6, and watching countryman Greg Norman lose a playoff to Larry Mize (on a remarkable chip shot). “That broke my heart,” Scott said.

Now, after a long quest for his first major title, Scott is the only golfer who could win the Grand Slam this year. Rose made that point during today’s interview, prompting Scott to say, “What a great thought. That’s an amazing thought.”
